I started playing with Unhinged, and I frequented the old WotC forums starting with the Unhinged and Unglued forum, where I tried to help people come to a consensus about obscure Un- rulings so I could be sure if my combo decks actually worked. Then I participated more and more in the proper Rules Issues forum, and I tried to pitch in at Rules Q&A sometimes. I participated in YMTC a few times, and I had some humble starts at trying to make custom sets, but I didn't share my work.

The Unhinged and Unglued forum was folded into Magic General. Several years after that, zammm's signature started featuring a link to this place, so I checked this place out every once in a while. Some years after that, the WotC forums shut down entirely. I saved the threads I wanted to remember, and I lurked here some more.

I've kept up with the rules forum here, but without a lot of in-depth rules debating going on, I haven't find a good way to settle in. I take it that goes on on the Judge's forum now? That's probably for the best; I was generally ignorant of what Judges have to deal with during real games, so I humored a lot of hypotheticals that were not an especially practical use of people's time. It always seemed like a great use of my own time, because if there was a deck that hinged on a horrifyingly obscure ruling, I wanted to build it.

It's been fun to see some wacky mechanics make it into casual products with real Comprehensive Rules support, like the Conspiracy and Commander products. If I theorized about S.N.O.T. or Yet Another Æther Vortex nowadays, the meld rules seem to be a good start. But... I sort of want to be past that kind of pedantry. Unless there are people who want to hear it, it's hardly worth it. And maybe there are, but I don't want to stir up my bad habits.

To say more about me outside of Magic, I'm a fan of comedy anime and interactive fiction, and I've built some programming languages for my personal use. My latest language is coming along really well, and I might start to implement a card game engine with it -- a dream I've carried since I played Monopoly and the Pokémon TCG as a kid, before I got into Magic. That's probably why I've got this place on my mind today.

It'd be nice to hang out here sometimes. Are there any subforums I should check out in particular? Surely there are some fans of convoluted combos and Un- cards, or card game engine development?

so i used to contribute around here like, years ago, but then i joined the military and went away for a long time, THEN on a whim i decided to check and see if all of you still existed. and some of you do! like really for real! some things don't change! that is exciting and i am excited to see you all again.

i uh, went by a different username back in the day though. can you guess who i was? does anyone remember me, i wonder???

I'm not a flavor guy myself, but Magic: Expanded Multiverse section. Just reach out in the shop section or something probably.You could also ask in the Off-Topic part of the Flavor section, since those two parts have a lot of overlap.

I'm a new french member but i've used frequently this forum for more than 1 year. I'm a Magic Duels player and i'm glad to talk about it with you.

I was a Magic card player when i was younger (now i am 33), i began with the 4th edition, ice age, fallen empires... and i was playing until the urza's block. More recently, i was playing to Magic DOTP 2014 and i've been playing for Magic Duels since the begining.

Please ignore Barney. We've been getting a lot of spam bots around here in the last year or so, some of which were quite sophisticated. That has made some people suspicious of any new account that doesn't immediately start contributing. You're doing fine.

What kind of games are you into?

I prefer action-adventure game, I love playing Resident Evil. I just finished its 7th installment and I am looking forward to the next series. I do love gore, from movies to games. As of now, I am playing The Witchers 3, I can't believe that this game will be so good.
